Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a pneumatic tire more particularly to a method of making a tread reinforcement being capable of reducing the tire weight.
  • radial tires are provided in the tread portion with a breaker to reinforce the tread portion. Further, in case of high speed use especially, a band is disposed on the radially outside of the breaker.
  • the breaker comprises two cross plies of parallel cords, wherein the plies are disposed one upon another so that the cords of one ply are crosswise to the other ply.
  • such a breaker is made such that first a strip of rubberized unwoven cord fabric is wound and, then another strip of rubberized unwoven cord fabric whose cord inclination is crosswise is wound on the former winding.
  • each strip has a constant width La and a length more than the circumferential length of the breaker, and the circumferential ends of each strip is spliced as shown in Fig.8.
  • the breaker has at least two splices.
  • the coating thickness (t) of the topping rubber (g) is set in a range of more than about 0.5 mm to be able to handle the strip as a continuous sheet.
  • the total thickness (t0) of two cross breaker plies becomes equal to the thickness of the cord X 2 + the coating thickness (t) X 4 in rough, as shown in Fig.9. This makes it difficult to reduce the tire weight.
  • the laid-open Japanese patent application IP-A-5-16610 discloses the use of a strip of two-axial woven cord fabric in stead of the above-mentioned two cross plies of rubberized unwoven cord fabric.
  • a cord spacing corresponding to the cord spacing (d) of the conventional breaker becomes zero and the total thickness of the breaker may be reduced accordingly.
  • the cords substantially contact each other in their crossings, they are rubbed against each other by the pantograph phenomenon accompanying the tread deformation during running, and thus the durability tends to decrease.
  • an object of the present invention to provide a pneumatic tire in which the tire weight is effectively reduced by reducing the weight of the tread reinforcing structure, and the damage on the cords by rubbing is prevented to improve the durability, and further the uniformity, steering stability, ride comfort and the like are improved.
  • a pneumatic tire 1 has a tread portion 2, a pair of sidewall portions 3 and a pair of bead portions. 4
  • the tire 1 is provided with a carcass 6 extending between the bead portions 4 and a stiff tread reinforcement 7 disposed radially outside the carcass 6 in the tread portion 2.
  • the carcass 6 comprises at least one ply of cords arranged radially at an angle of from 70 to 90 degrees with respect to the tire equator, extending between the bead portions 4 through the tread portion 2 and sidewall portions 3 and turned up around the bead core 5 in each bead portion 4 from the inside to the outside of the tire so as to form a pair of carcass turnups 6B and a carcass main 6A therebetween. Between the carcass main 6A and each turnup 6B, a bead-apex rubber 8 extending radially outwards from the bead core 5 is disposed to reinforce the bead portion 4.
  • organic fiber cords e.g. nylon, polyester, rayon and aromatic polyamide, are suitably used.
  • the tread reinforcement 7 is made of a cylindrical endless cord-network 12.
  • the cord-network 12 is composed of a first array 21 of cords 10 which are inclined to one direction with respect to the tire equator (hereinafter the "first cords 11A"), and a second array 22 of cords 10 which are inclined to one direction with respect to the tire equator which is opposed to that of the first array 21 (hereinafter the second cords 11B").
  • the inclination angle (alpha1) of the first cords 11A and the inclination angle (alpha2) of the second cords 11B are the same absolute value in a range of from 10 to 35 degrees with respect to the tire equator, but the inclinations are opposite with respect to the tire equator.
  • the cylindrical cord-network 12 is made using a drum D, namely, a single cord 10 coated with rubber G (hereinafter the "single cord") or a plurality of (2 to 11) cords 10 embedded in rubber G are applied to the surface of the drum D.
  • the surface of the drum D may be cylindrical but usually and preferably it is profiled into a specific shape similar to that in the finished tire.
  • the coating rubber G is vulcanized or half-vulcanized.
  • the cylindrical cord-network 12 is formed by weaving the single cords 10 into a continuous annular net as shown in Fig.2, wherein the cords which cross any of the cords alternate between the outside and inside of the crossed cord along the length thereof as shown in Fig.4.
  • the thickness T of the coating rubber G In the crossings P between the first cords 11A and the second cords 11B, in order to prevent direct contact between the first cords 11A and second cords 11B, the thickness T of the coating rubber G must be set in a range of from 0.10 to 0.40 mm, more preferably 0.15 to 0.30 mm. If the thickness T is less than 0.10 mm, the cord damage can not be prevented. If the thickness T is more than 0.40 mm, it becomes impossible to attain a thickness reduction of the tread reinforcement 7.
  • the thickness of the cord-network is doubled, but in the other portion, the first cords 11A and second cords 11B are on the same plane. Therefore, the thickness of the cord-network corresponds to the thickness of the cords inclusive of the rubber G.
  • steel cords or high modulus organic fiber cords such as aromatic polyamide are preferably used.
  • steel cords are used.
  • the cord density of the tread reinforcement 7 is determined as follows. with respect to each of the cord arrays 21 or 22, the total cross-section area in sq.mm of the cords 10 which are disposed in a unit width of 50 mm (perpendicularly to the cord direction) is in a range of from 5.0 to 12.0.
  • the total cross-section area may be obtained by multiplying the cord count per 50 mm width and the cross-sectional area in sq.mm of a cord.
  • Fig.5 shows another example of the cylindrical cord-network 12.
  • the second cord array 22 is disposed on the first cord array 21, without weaving the cords.
  • the cords 11A of the first array 21 and the cords 11B of the second array 22 are on the same plane.
  • the cords are curved to bind each other similar to the former example.
  • the cylindrical cord-network 12 is formed as follows. First, the above-mentioned single cords are applied on the drum D side-by-side while inclining at the inclination angle (alpha1) to make the first array 21 of cords 11A.
  • the single cords are applied side-by-side while inclining at the inclination angle (alpha2). Therefore, as shown in Fig. 5, the cords which cross any of the cords are either the outside or the inside of the crossed cord along the length thereof unlike the former example shown in Fig.4.
  • the cord-networks 12 shown in Figs.4 and 5 have no joint unlike the conventional breaker having two splices. Accordingly, the tire uniformity and conicity are improved, and the ride comfort may be improved.
  • the first cords 11A and the second cords 11B are pressed between the drum D and an elastic roller to place them on the same plane.
  • the rigidity and hoop effect are increased, and the steering stability can be effectively improved.
  • the stress on the cords is dispersed to improve the high-speed durability.
  • the cords 11A and 11B are on the same plane in a substantial part of the cord-network 12, the residual cornering force becomes zero. Owing to this effect, one-side drifting of the vehicle can be prevented and the steering stability is improved.
  • a tread rubber 2G enters the meshes of the cord-network 12. Therefore, the rigidity of the tread portion 2 is improved, and the resistance to separation therebetween is increased.
  • the single cords are used to make the cord-network 12.
  • a plurality of tapes may be used instead of the single cords, wherein, a plurality (2 to 11) of cords 10 are embedded in the rubber G in a form of a tape as shown in Fig.6.
  • the use of the tapes is preferable for the working efficiency.
  • the tread rubber 2G is applied to the outside of the cylindrical cord-network 12 while being pressed against the cylindrical cord-network 12 to thereby make an annular assembly of the tread rubber 2G and tread reinforcement 7.
  • a main body of the tire is formed.
  • An inner liner or a thin sheet of air-impermeable rubber is wound around a tire building drum.
  • a strip of rubberized unwoven cord fabric is wound thereon.
  • the bead cores 5 and bead apexes 8 are placed on the outside of the cylindrically wound carcass.
  • the edges of the carcass are folded back around the bead cores and the carcass is changed from the cylindrical shape to a toroidal shape while timely applying rubber components such as sidewall rubber and bead rubber called clinch rubber and reinforcing cord layer if any.
  • the above-mentioned tread rubber and reinforcement assembly is put.
  • the green tire made like this is put into a mold and heated to be vulcanized.
  • a Japanese 1600 cc FF car provided on all the wheels with test tires was run straight for 100 meters without holding the steering wheel, and the displacement of the car was measured.
  • the average value of five time measurements is indicated in Table 1 by an index based on the conventional tire being 100. The smaller the index number, the smaller the displacement.
  • the test car made 8-turn (radius 20m) a hundred times and then breaks of the cords were counted.
  • the count is indicated in Table 1 by an index based on the conventional tire being 100. The larger the index number, the higher the durability.
  • the test was conducted using a tire test drum according to the ECE30 standard.
  • the running speed of the test tire was increased every 20 minutes at steps of 10 km/h from 170 km/hr.
  • the running was continued until the tire was broken.
  • Table 1 there is shown a speed which is one step lower than the speed at which the tire was broken. (Inflation pressure: 265 Kpa, Tire load: 380 kgf/sq.cm)
  • the weight of the cord-network and the breaker consisting of two cross plies were measured and indicated by an index based on the breaker being 100.
